I've had the SH4 u boat missions add on since it first came out.I think I installed it once didn't like it and forgot about it for a couple of years.Anyway to get to the point I reinstalled it a day or so ago and added the new TMO to it and WOW! what a game it was "beautiful" then I hit my first snag the loss of my gramophone.This didn't set me back to long as the fix for this problem is in the TMO support folder in the main TMO download and is called TMO_stock_Gramaphone I added it to my mods folder activated it with JSGME and bingo I had my gramophone back.Now here was when things got me thinking.I don't know if your like me but I love all the music from the World War 2 era American and German but how to get it separated so I can have American music when I'm playing the American missions and vice versa German music when I'm playing the German missions?It took me awhile to wrap my head around this but here is what I came up with.First I made a folder and named it Gramophone I copied and pasted all my American music into it, I then made a folder and named it Sound I put the Gramophone folder into Sound folder, then I made a folder and named it Data I dropped the Sound folder into it,For the last step I made a folder and named it Gram US and put the Data folder into it.I did the same thing for the German music only I named my final folder Gram Ger.I then put both folders into my mods folder.I then went into the main SH4 Data folder went into the Sound folder and deleted the Gramophone folder, then I went into the TMO main mod Data folder and deleted the Gramophone folder from it's sound folder.Now when I want to switch sides I can also switch music using JSGME just by activating one of my Gram folders.If any of you try this I hope it works it did for me.:)

Thanks! This is a great idea:yep: I was always tired of skipping through my German songs while in a Fleet Boat, and vice versa.
